Code Declare - Declare Field With Initializer throws NullReferenceException

created 5 months ago

Good Afternoon,

I'm continuing to get Code Rush errors when starting up different solutions… note, this does not happen every time, but it is happening more frequently now. Not sure if it's because of a Visual Studio update or what, but it is frustrating:

So both of these show up in the bar that runs across the top of visual studio when you're looking at code:
These two were when starting a VB.NET Desktop (winforms) application… using the net 4.8 framework. (older application).

Code

        Hi,

        Do you mind if we make this ticket public, so that we can include it in the list of fixed issues for the next release?

          That would be fine.

          Mark
